122\u2013He Has An Abusive Wife\u00a0<\/p>\n
Madeline:\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat the hell, Kaylee?\u201d Graham snapped, clamping his hand over her mouth. \u201cShe\u2019s trying to create distance between us,\u201d he shouted while dragging her out of the room.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The second they disappeared, the room felt too small to breathe in.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I didn\u2019t know where to stand, what to think, or how to stop the feeling of everything collapsing around me.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cDo you want to sit down? Take a minute?\u201d Baxter asked gently.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI want to get out of here.\u201d I didn\u2019t look at him. I just shook my head.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t care if the wind blows me away, I need to be out of this house.\u201d My voice cracked as I grabbed for the door, but Baxter moved faster, planting his hand against the frame, barring the exit.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThe news said to stay inside,\u201d he insisted. \u201cIt\u2019s not just a storm, it\u2019s magical. Weapons, debris, everything\u2019s being thrown around. People are getting stabbed by flying metal. Dozens of casualties already. It\u2019s a curse storm.\u201d His words barely registered. I couldn\u2019t stay here.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Not another second in the middle of these alphas tearing me in different directions.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cNo, Baxter, you don\u2019t understand.\u201d I finally looked him in the eyes. \u201cGetting stabbed would feel better than being in here right now.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
He inhaled a deep breath right in front of me. His hand slowly dropped from the doorframe.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThen I\u2019ll escort you,\u201d he said quietly. \u201cPhysically. And I\u2019ll make sure you get somewhere safe.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
He led the way while I followed behind him, walking anxiously toward the town where we would once again confront the disastrous family.\u00a0<\/p>\n
This time, when I reached the stairs, I noticed Lord Eldon standing by the door, arms folded across his chest.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The minute Baxter reached the last step, he pointed at the old man.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cNot a single word,\u201d he warned him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I noticed the way Lord Eldon frowned at Baxter.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cHow are you speaking to me, young lad? Did she make you forget how to respect your elders?\u201d he asked.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAfter just a few minutes of conversation with her alone, you are a different man?\u201d he retorted at Baxter.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAlready upset just because you felt a little disrespected? Don\u2019t you think you give her too much credit for everything? she did not ask me to behave toward you in a certain way. These are my words. This is my decision. I don\u2019t want you to communicate with her. Your son has already done enough damage to her mental health,\u201d Baxter replied without holding back.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The mention of Graham, however, immediately brought a nasty smile to Lord Eldon\u2019s face.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cOh, so my son told you the decision? That he finally wants to do a DNA test?\u201d he remarked.\u00a0<\/p>\n
As soon as he said that, my fist clenched. Graham had already taken a few steps ahead.\u00a0<\/p>\n
If he had told his father, it was essentially a done deal.\u00a0<\/p>\n
1\/3\u00a0<\/p>\n
There was no way anyone could convince him to step back now. Even if he wanted to, his father wouldn\u2019t allow it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cShe\u2019s not going to speak with you right now,\u201d Baxter said, pointing at Eldon.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cBut she spoke with Kaylee. I saw her run into the room with her husband, crying,\u201d Penny commented\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIs this what you have learned in the human world, Madeline? How to cause division between couples?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
I didn\u2019t know what made Penny speak up. She usually never said anything.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But I wanted her silence, because, well, she made me laugh.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Before Baxter could respond to her, I gave him a hand gesture to indicate that I had it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I stepped out from behind him and folded my arms across my chest.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou\u2019re the one who\u2019s going to ask me what I learned?\u201d I said, noticing her cocky demeanor start to crumble.\u00a0<\/p>\n
A slight tinge of embarrassment crept across her face.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cNo, seriously. I just want to know how. How can someone have the courage to ask such a question?\u201d I continued. \u201cStanding right next to a man whose entire family she ruined.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
I taunted her and watched her eyes widen.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd before you tell me that we are both wrong, let me clarify. I am not the one who asked for a DNA test. Your stepson is ruining my relationship with my husband. Tell me again, who is at fault here? Who is the homewrecker?\u201d I corrected her sharply. Silence never really leads to justice.\u00a0<\/p>\n
No one is kind enough to take silence as someone\u2019s innocence.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou cannot talk to my wife like this, Lord Eldon hissed.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWell, but can you talk to her like that?\u201d Baxter remarked, putting the old man in his place by reminding him how hypocritical he was.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd I must say one thing, Penny. It seems Baxter got the homewrecking experience from you. He is stepping right into your tracks. Not only is he ruining his own relationship with his wife, but he is ruining mine too,\u201d I stated as I stared into her eyes. 1\u00a0<\/p>\n
I noticed the way she didn\u2019t blink once, yet her jaw kept tightening and her teeth were grinding.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She wanted to attack me with her little nasty claws.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Baxter standing beside me like a shield was what stopped anyone from reaching me.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She should be glad he was here, because if he hadn\u2019t been, I might not have realized what I was doing and probably would have let my wolf out, the grey wolf ready to tear her apart from limb to limb. I knew my wolf was capable of it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Besides, it seemed Lena wanted to come out, It had been some time since she had tasted blood. I could feel it rising in me.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWell, Madeline. You said what you wanted to say. Now the DNA test will speak for itself, and we will find out how loyal you were to your husband,\u201d Penny said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
As she spoke, I stepped to my left whi\u00a0<\/p>\n
Graham was coming out of his room.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He was in a state that silenced me for a moment.\u00a0<\/p>\n
2\/3\u00a0<\/p>\n
His face was scratched up so badly that none of us responded for the first few seconds.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m not going to stay with Kaylee anymore. I don\u2019t want an abusive wife like her. I am letting you all know, I love Madeline,\u201d Graham stated with his lips split, his nose bleeding, and too many bruises on his face and neck.\u00a0<\/p>\n
His condition, along with his confession, brought silence and caused goosebumps to rise on my skin.\u00a0<\/p>\n
